The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds

For The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds at Okoboji Summer Theatre, I designed a setting that captured the gritty realism of a converted convenience store home. Aging newspapers covering the windows and a broken bell above the door added lived-in authenticity, while faded gold wallpaper conveyed a sense of decayed elegance. This detailed and atmospheric design grounded the characters’ struggles in their environment, enhancing the play’s exploration of resilience amidst decay.
